[June 03, 2014]LINCOLN,
May 29, 2014– The Abraham Lincoln Healthcare Foundation
has named three 2014 Healthcare Career Scholarship
recipients. Jade Dean of New Holland, Jacquiline
Martincic of Lincoln and Abigale Ray of Lincoln will
each receive a total of $20,000 over 4 semesters with an
agreement to work their first job out of college at
Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital.

ALHF has made a
commitment to invest in the future workforce of ALMH through its
Healthcare Career Scholarship Program.

Dean, Martincic and Ray
were selected for the scholarship after a rigorous application
process that included three rounds of interviews, reference checks
and job shadowing at ALMH. Dean and Ray will both begin a BSN
program at St. Francis School of Nursing in the fall. Martincic
will be attending a BSN program at Anderson University.

This is the fourth year
for the program. “We think supporting the studies of students who
have made job commitments to ALMH reflects the mission of both the
foundation and the hospital,” said Eric Graue, Chairman of the ALHF.
“This forward-thinking approach is a win-win-win situation for the
hospital, the community and the students.”

Abraham Lincoln
Memorial Hospital is a community-based critical access hospital
serving the people of Logan and eastern Mason County. The
Abraham Lincoln Healthcare Foundation was formed in 1986 to
support the mission of ALMH. Contributions to the scholarship
fund are welcome at anytime. To learn more about this and other
